I downloaded Monkey - there was an update for the X3 driver. The HTTP403 bug is resolved, but the Reaper-Gearbox problem is still there

I don't think my DAW settings are bad as they were working back when I had Windows XP.

Here's the audio device settings, if it may help :

Audio System : ASIO

Asio Driver : Asio pod x3 live

X enable imputs :

First : 7 ; tone 1 dry

Last : 8 ; tone 2 dry

(so that I'll be able to reamp with Pod FARM)

Output Range :

First : 1 ; output 1

Last : 2 ; output 2

X Request sample rate : 48000

Also, when I plug the X3 LIVE on, the computer recognises it as the primary audio system, disabling the sound from my computer headphones. I have to switch it everytime, Is there a "default option" to resolve it up?

Thanks again

Another test : Even though I can't switch tones on gearbox, if I record using the previous audio settings, it works and records the dry imput of the guitar. But I can't listen to the result through the headphones connected to the pod - I have to switch to WaveOut or DirectSound & use the computers' audio system.

thats the problem you HAVE to use the X3 as your soundcard... you cant switch the output to another soundcard.

also make sure that your output on the x3 is set to match studio direct....

Using Gearbox, the 1/4 Inch output is set to "Match Studio/Direct", but I'm not sure if it is what you are talking about.

Also, I may have been using the wrong words as english is not my first language. (even though that's not the most important, it might be the root of the problem?)
If I plug the X3 on, the computer TRIES to use the X3's soundcard to play, for instance, a Youtube noise. I tried to launch a movie, it worked for 1 second and then shutted up.

Before I switched computers, it was recognizing X3 as connected, but was letting my computer's soundcard as the primary one. I used the X3 along the ASIO drivers - for instance, I could load a music through my computer speakers and play using headphones plugged in the X3 - using the following chain

guitar - x3 - dry signal into daw - VSTs - x3's headphones

Attached file shows what happens with the new computer. My Windows is in French, but I just wanted to show how the X3 soundcard was plugged as the primary, letting the computer's (VIA) one to a "slave/passive" mode.
